I think both President Trump and I, we are very clear about our positions and our views, and what I really appreciate about the president is that the meeting that we had focused not on places of disagreement, which there are many, and also focused on the shared purpose that we have in serving New Yorkers, Mamdani said. And frankly, that is something that could transform the lives of the 8.5 million people who are currently struggling under a cost-of-living crisis with one in four living in poverty. And the meeting came back again and again to what it could look like to lift those New Yorkers out of struggle, and start to deliver them a city that they could do more than just struggle to afford it, but actually start to live in it.

The FBI has infiltrated a signal chat used by court watchers simply to know what's on the docket in the cases in this building, to identify where ICE agents are, and while engaging in constitutionally protected non-violent legal activity, the FBI in a throwback to the days of J Edgar Hoover, is infiltrating and surveilling nonviolent, legal, constitutionally protected political activity, and I have to tell you: I am outraged by it,

Speaking to reporters in the Oval Office after the meeting's end, Trump said he would be comfortable living in New York City with Mamdani in charge, and that he believes the democratic socialist will surprise some conservatives. It was a marked change from the charged comments the president has leveled at Mamdani both during his campaign and after he won the race earlier this month.

We're so happy to present the Streetsblog debut of Joel Katuala, who has been a prolific pro-bike YouTuber for about a month now. His latest contribution? A short video lambasting Mayor Adams - and, by extension, Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch (who will stay in office) - for the criminal crackdown that began on cyclists that began this spring. Here, Katuala, who describes himself as a "fairly optimistic person," makes the pessimistic case against the Adams administration's crackdown.

On Wednesday, Nov. 26, subways and buses will operate on a regular weekday schedule. On Thanksgiving Day, New York City subway and buses will operate on a Sunday schedule. The Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade kicks off at 8:30 a.m. at 77 St. and Central Park West on Thursday.

New York City during the holidays is a magical sight to see. Between the whimsical Christmas tree lightings across the five boroughs and the fun and festive Thanksgiving Day parade, there's nothing short of magic when you visit the city that never sleeps. When families come to visit NYC during the holiday season, holiday window displays are a must-see. These displays are beautifully designed every year to add a little magic to your family's day, specifically curated by each store.

Sperone Westwater, the Bowery-based gallery that represents canonical figures including Francesco Clemente and Bruce Nauman, will cease operations at the end of this year. The closure, first reported by Artnet News, comes just two months after the gallery marked its 50th anniversary and three months after the gallery's co-founder, Gian Enzo Sperone, sued his fellow co-founder, Angela Westwater, seeking to dissolve the gallery, and alleging her "unlawful handling" of funds.

Morris Cornbread is the charismatic force behind one of New York City's most recognizable TikTok shows, Subway Oracle. Born and raised in Queens, Cornbread began his creative journey with pranks, subway stunts, and fortune teller bits, all recorded with friends on YouTube. He later moved to Instagram and TikTok before returning to YouTube with the Cornbread Show, a late-night-style talk show on the train.

The chaotic brawl outside a popular Midtown Manhattan restaurant during which New York Jets cornerback Kris Boyd was shot and critically wounded was sparked when a group chirped the NFL player and his companions about their stylish clothes, NYPD Chief of Detectives Joseph Kenny said at a press briefing on Thursday. Boyd, 29, his teammates Irvin Charles and Jamien Sherwood and a friend from Boyd's native Texas whose birthday they were celebrating pulled up to the Asian-fusion speakeasy and celeb hotspot Sei Less around 2 a.m. on Sunday in a Cadillac Escalade,

Meet the new police commissioner - same as the old police commissioner! Incoming Mayor Zohran Mamdani announced on Wednesday that Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch, a veteran of city government and a scion of one of the city's wealthiest families, would remain in her post when he takes over City Hall next year. It's an extraordinary decision with little precedent in modern city history.

Mamdani's platform put forward a single policy proposal on higher education: a promise to work with state and city lawmakers to "massively invest" in the City University of New York, the city's public system of four-year institutions, community colleges and professional schools, which has consistently called for more funding. The goal is to support "infrastructure, pay staff and faculty a living wage, give free OMNY cards to all students, and make CUNY tuition-free for all students," Mamdani's platform read.

It's estimated that there are more than 9,000 of these "construction sheds" (another term for scaffolding) installed across the city, enough to stretch nearly 400 miles if they were put end to end. They do the important work of shielding pedestrians from potential falling debris during building construction and renovation projects, but they also shroud large swaths of sidewalk in dark and cloistered tunnels made of an unfortunate jumble of steel poles and plywood.

A baby boy was found dead in a black bag, ditched in a pile of leaves behind a Brooklyn public housing development Thursday, cops and law enforcement sources said. The infant - believed to be between 5 and 7 months old - was found just after 11 a.m. behind a building on East 102nd Street, within NYCHA's Bay View Houses in Canarsie, authorities and sources said.

You can argue all you want about the very best dive bars in NYC, but this guide is not that. This is the dive bar directory. It's where you should turn when you find yourself in Tribeca and can't possibly deal with the thought of a $30 cocktail, or when you want to drink during the day without anyone looking at you sideways.

"I want a trial," said Lander, the city's comptroller and an ally of Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani. He spoke after emerging from a federal courtroom in Manhattan, where he'd waited to hear what action authorities would take over his Sept. 18 protest alongside several lawmakers. He vowed to keep protesting the Trump administration's immigration crackdown and said a trial would "bring to light" what federal authorities are doing.

Yet, with any legislation, Local Law 18 has presented unintended consequences that have actually made the city less affordable for New Yorkers. That's because New Yorkers have lost a vital tool that allows them to supplement the growing costs of homeownership. This current Council has a historic opportunity, however, to make minor changes to the existing law not wipe it out or even water it down that will put this tool back in the hands of those struggling to make ends meet.

NYPD detectives charged a Medford man on Tuesday with leaving the scene of a September hit-and-run crash that killed a woman in Brooklyn.
